Cardinal Drive In serves great food, including moist and flaky catfish, at good prices with fast and friendly service. This small-town diner checks all the boxes, offering a pleasant dining experience. It is a drive-in similar to Sonic, with parking available for customers. The restaurant has a nostalgic feel, reminding visitors of drive-ins from the 1970s. The menu is well-maintained and clean, and the food is always good. Customers enjoy ordering meals like the burgers, shakes, and cherry limeade, often taking their food home. The staff is courteous and helpful, ensuring hot food with minimal wait times. Despite some issues with short staffing affecting phone orders and grill operations, the restaurant remains a gem worth visiting for a satisfying meal.
